There were avowedly a number ofissues with theStar Warssequel trilogy , although arguably the biggest was the minimally - explained return of Emperor Palpatine and his connection to Rey . In fact , although the sequels had several continuity issues , The rising slope of Skywalker’ssudden go out twist with Palpatine was one of the most crying in allStar Warsmovies and television set shows .
TheStar Warstimelinehas since worked to explicate this return , most notably inStar Wars : The Bad Batch , which revealedProject Necromancer and Palpatine ’s Christ’s Resurrection design . Yet , even with a bit more context , Palpatine ’s return remains perplexing because it directly negate what had been established about Rey ’s history .

However , Star Warshad the everlasting account all along , given by none other than Obi - Wan Kenobi inReturn of the Jedi .

Obi-Wan’s Half-Truth About Darth Vader Is Well-Known in Star Wars
The whirl that Darth Vader was really Luke Skywalker ’s Church Father inThe Empire Strikes Backwas one of the most shocking reverse not only inStar Warsbut also in cinema story . However , while this moment may now be iconic , at the time , it posed some serious story issues . Namely , inA New Hope , Obi - Wan told Luke that Darth Vader had killed his forefather , make this a massive retcon . In truth , this find because the twist had n’t been George Lucas ' original plan ; however , it require an in - universe account .
That explanation came in the form of a rather brash product line from Obi - Wan Kenobi ’s Force ghost inReturn of the Jedi . Famously , Obi - Wan tell Luke,“What I evidence you was dead on target … from a certain point of view . “Understandably , Luke responded to this statement with incredulity , clearly bewildered ( and probably a bit miff ) that Obi - Wan would describe his half - verity in this manner . However , this well-situated out from Obi - Wan is the gross remedy to Kylo Ren ’s similar Trygve Lie inThe Last Jedi .
This easy out from Obi - Wan is the everlasting remediation to Kylo Ren ’s similar lie inThe Last Jedi .
Kylo Ren’s Last Jedi Half-Truth Is Also True… From A Certain Point Of View
The sequel trilogy backed itself into an almost selfsame corner with its disgraceful Palpatine reveal . InThe Last Jedi , Kylo Ren confirm Rey ’s fears that her parents were ' nobody , ' adding that they had been nothing more than"filthy junk traders"who sold her for booze money . However , The ascension of Skywalkercompletely rewrote that backstory , instead revealing that Rey ’s Father of the Church had been a Palpatine clone , and they had left her on Jakku to protect her .
The justification for this half - trueness ( if it can be address that ) inThe Last Jediwas simply that Rey ’s parents were technically nobody because"they chose to be . “While this could almost excuse the notion that Rey ’s parents were n’t ' significant ' in theStar Warsuniverse the path the Skywalkers were , it did little to accost the fact that Kylo Ren had call them junk dealer and articulate they sold Rey into thrall . distinctly , Kylo had applied Obi - Wan ’s very same system of logic !
Of of course , in reality , Obi - Wan ’s cheeky response does n’t really work in this instance . Although a second opaque , Obi - Wan ’s asseveration technically was reliable . After all , Darth Vader repeatedly say he ' killed ' Anakin Skywalker . The same can not be said for Kylo Ren ’s assertions inThe Last Jedi , which were more objectively ill-timed . Nevertheless , it seems theStar Warssequel trilogy adopt fromObi - Wan Kenobi’slogic inReturn of the Jediwhen it came to Palpatine ’s surprising Resurrection of Christ inStar war : The acclivity of Skywalker .
